The Phoenix Suns home woes have been gigantic as they get ready to host the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.
The Suns are 26-21 on the year, but they’re one of the rare NBA teams where their record is similar at home (13-10) and away (13-11). Phoenix has also been awful from a betting perspective at home, where their 7-16 ATS mark is one of the worst in the league.
The Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers play one of the biggest games in the NBA regular season on Thursday night and you can bet on it at Sportsbook.com.
The Lakers delivered the first blow on Christmas with a 92-83 win at home as two-point favorites, breaking an incredible 0-9 ATS streak L.A. had going against the C’s.
UCLA is currently ranked #12 in the nation and have begun to solidify themselves as the top team on the west coast. They looked fantastic against a good Stanford team last week. Their straight-up record if 17 and 4. Against the BetUS spread, the Bruins are only 10 and 10 which makes them an iffy wagering proposition for online betting fans.

After missing last week’s regular NBA weekly review due to illness, (who’s not sick right now, eh?), you’re NBA-lovin’ and NBA-livin’, handicapping homeboy, E’ Dubya’ is back this week to set the record straight on who’s hot, who’s not – and more importantly, who’s going to cash in more often than not for my beloved BetUS NBA sports betting buddies.
The Connecticut Huskies, 20 and 1 straight-up, travel to Louisville to take on the Cardinals. The Huskies are easily one of the top teams in the Big East but against the BetUS online betting spread, they haven’t made any fans rich. Their record against the spread is a tepid 8 and 7. They are 4 and 1 against the spread on the road, though, which means sports wagering fans have to consider them in this game.

Just because it’s Super Bowl weekend it doesn’t mean that online betting fans can slack off and not try to find a couple of NBA winners.
I mean, the Super Bowl is the biggest online betting event in the world, but the NBA provides gem betting games almost everyday and especially on a weekend when the NBA schedulers try to fit in as many marquee games as possible.
A day before the Super Bowl another Pittsburgh team will be in action when the #3 ranked Pitt Panthers hosts Notre Dame. Pittsburgh has been pretty much brilliant this season going 18 and 2 straight-up. Against the BetUS online wagering spread, their record of 8-6-1 isn’t the best in the nation.
